10 ways to 'bi xie' at hotels
1.Press the doorbell b4 entering, if no bell, at least knock on the door,it means telling 'whoever' inside that "sorry to disturb, jus staying for a while". Best if u can use the native language to say it out..
2. when first entering the main door, best to leave a gap by turning ur body sideways as u enter, this is to allow that 'somebody' in the room to come out in order to let u stay..
3. prepare a pair of slippers, place one facing the door, the other facing away, this is to guide the 'somebody" away from the door..
4. place some salt and a glass of plain water by the bed side.. this can help to "Bi Xie"
5. Flush the toilet bowl once b4 using it for the first time.. this is to flush away all the 'bad things"
6. Dun touch the bible in the room, even if the bible is in a flipped open state, jus leave it as it is..
7. Try not to wear black and red colored attire, go for yellow.. said to help in "Bi Xie"..
8. When turning in for the nite, remember MUST close the toilet door and try not to leave the toilet lights on..
9. DO NOT face a mirror when sleeping..
10. When sleeping, DO NOT arrange ur slippers neatly, best to leave them in an untidy state..
